Rikki's outfit:

Ok, so it's the day that Rikki goes to Total Drama Island. She was on the boat writing in her diar. She had her iPod in the pocket of her jeans, and she was listening to "If Cupid Had A Heart" by Julie Griffin. She hummed along as she wrote. She was nervous about it when she first got on the boat, but she felt better as she wrote. Writing in her diary was one of the things that made Rikki feel better about things that got her worried.

"Dear Diary,

I'm headed for Total Drama Island right now. I'm kind of worried that I'll goof something up. Still, I'm smart and a good listener, so whatever this show's about, I think if I give it my all, I might be able to pull through. I can't say I'm confident about this whole thing, but I'm happy enough right now to tell myself that I'll do alright in this thing and not feel like I'm lieing to myself like I usually do. I think I just might have what it takes to win this. I just have to keep my eyes open and I'll more likely at least make it through this thing without getting a scratch on me."

After she was done with that paragraph, she decided to wait for a little bit until she got to the island. She realized that "A La Nanita" was on. She hummed for a little while. She really liked this song. Then the song was started over. She, then, got out to the edge of the boat, and realizing that she didn't make it to the island just yet, she closed her eyes and started singing...

**********************************************************************************

"A la nanita nana nanita ella nanita ella
Mi niña tiene sueno bendito sea, bendito sea
(repeat)
Fuentecita que corre clara y sonora
Ruiseñor que en la selva cantando llora
Calla mientras la cuna se balansea
A la nanita nana, nanita ella
A la nanita nana nanita ella nanita ella
Mi niña tiene sueno bendito sea, bendito sea
Fuentecita que corre clara y sonora
Ruiseñor que en la selva cantando llora
Calla mientras la cuna se balansea
A la nanita nana, nanita ella..."

"Well, well, lookslike oursong bird, Rikki'shere." Rikki heard Chris's voice, and she instantly went into nervous mode all over again. She sat down at the spot where she was, turning away from everyone and blushing like crazy. "And, apparently, she's still as shy as she's always been." Chris said. As Rikki sat there, listening to one of the girls ask him how he knew me, I sat there, upset with herself; she must've looked dumb hiding like that. Suddenly, she felt a tap on her arm, so she turned around to see a girl with black andgreen hair () giving her a small, yetkind smile.
"Hi, I'm Gwen." the girl said holding out her hand. Rikki took it, standing up. "M-my name's...Rikki." she said smiling shyly as ever. "Well, it's nice to meet you. You have an amazing voice, by the way." Gwen said. Rikki blushed again, but not as much as before; "Th-thanks, Gwen..." she said. "Here; let me help you with your stuff." Gwen said grabbing one of Rikki's bags.
After unloading Rikki's things from the boat, the girls both got off themselves. Suddenly, this rock song was playing from off the water. Rikki and everyone else turned to see a guy with partially green hair and a couple of piercings ( ) on the boat; when he got off, and looked angryly at Chris. "Wow...hot and aggressive...he's just like...just like him..." Rikki thought. "I already hate him." she whispered to Gwen even though she knew she had just lied to herself, her friend, and pretty much everyone nation-wide. "Don't worry; I'll keep him away from you." Gwen whispered back.
As more people came, she thought of who her friends might be. LeShawna, Gwen, Courtney, Bridgette and Trent had some friendship potential, but the instant Rikki saw Justin, she passed out. With her bad luck, she ended up falling right into Duncan's arms. When she woke up, Duncan was on his knees still holding her, and he had a little bit ofa sneaky little look in his eye. Nervous, Rikki nearly jumped out of his arms, an angry look on her face and her arms crossed over her chest. "Don't you ever touch me again, get it, chuckle-head?" she said blushing a little.
Duncan smiled slyly, apparently seeing her blush. "Sure, but...can I kiss you, though?" hewhispered in her ear. Rikki was about to yell at him whenhekissed her cheek. Rikki stared after him as he left, her hand on the spot he kissed and her whole face AND her ears going cherry red. She shook it off, and went over to where the group was. "It's ok,Rikki...jus tmake sure everyone thinks you hate that chuckle-head, andact as obsessed with Justin as possible so nobody suspects a thing. Piece of cake...or it should be." she thought.
Rikki was having an issue with her feelings for Duncan because ofthe last bad boy she dated, Jeremie Samuels (). They met in 7th grade when he got out of Juvie in October, and they started dating for 2 years. However, Rikki found out he was cheating on him with his 2 best friends and a pair of cheerleaders. She was devistated, and didn't go to school for weeks. She swore off of bad boys forever because of him. She's never went out with another guy since then...

Rikki and her dad were in her room one night. She had finished her homework, did all of her chores, and pickd her outfit for the next day, but she had one last thing to do; she had to make her audition tape for "Total Drama Island". She took a deep breath, trying hard not to worry. "Rikki, don't worry, ok? A girl as talented as you has nothing to worry about." her dad said. Rikki smiled, knowing he was right. Anyway, she knew she had to do this; she had to do it for her, her family, her friends, and especially her older sis, Melisa.

Rikki's your typical shy lone wolf. She likes to be on her own, and when someone does talk to her (which at school is rarely), she usually loses her cool, and can't work up the nerve to say aword. What makes it worse; her family's rich and famous, so she's sort of the odd-one-out as far as the rest of her family goes. She used to be comfortable being on the sid-lines, but after her sister, Melisa died, she vowed to try and change herself. That's why she wants to be on "Total Drama Island". She knew that something like being on national TV would give her the confidence boost she'sneeded ever since she was 6-years-old.
Rikki sat on her bed, holding her favorite teddy bear close to her. "Ok, sweety, ready?" her dadasked with the camera in his hands as he looked at her. She gulped, but then looked into her teddy bears eyes. She smiled, feeling a little better, and looked right at her father. "Yeah, I'm ready, daddy." she said smiling sweetly. "Ok, then, let's get started." her dad said turning on th camera.
========================================================================
The following Saturday, Rikki was eaing watching TV when the mail came. She went over the front door of her huge mansion, and picked up the letters. She always sorted through the letters for her parents. She went over to the coffee table, separating the letters (which were mostly fan-mail) into a pile for her mom and one for her dad since she was almost positive she wouldn't get anything. Suddenly, she came across a letterwith Chris McClaine's name on it.The thing that weirded Rikki out was thatit was addressed to her!
"Did I actually get in? No way..." Rikki thought. The suspense driving her crazy, she opened th letter, then read it silently to herself. It read:
"Dear Rikki,
Congratulations for making it on our show! I'm happy you've decided to do this. You've never really been involved as far as your role as the daughter of a super-star family, and I think doing this show should do a lot for your image. Also, I know you're shy, so I give you major props for doing this. Next time I see you on the red carpet, I expect to see you talking up a storm! Anyway, pack your stuff, and be here tomorrow, ok?

Chris McClaine."

Rikki was on the verge of passing out at that moment. She had just been accepted to "Total Drama Island"! "YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh, I've got to pack my stuff, tll mom and dad, then call my friends!" she thought. With that, Rikki went right to her room to pack 3 of her suitcases. She was really excited about being accepted to the show. This was her big chance to show the world that she was ready to be the starlet that they were hoping she'd become!

Name: Rikki Daniels

Age: 16

Appearance: Rikki has long, black hair that reaches her back that she often keeps down, but during the campfire ceremonies or intesensely hot days, she puts her hair in a ponytail. She wears any type of black shoes (usually sneakers or boots), any kind of jeans or denim skirt (though usually, its her dark blue jeans with the knees cut off), a golden charm bracelet with star and heart charms, sunglasses, gold earrings that match her bracelet, and (if not her favorite white, shoulder-less long-sleeve shirt) any top she can grab out of her suitcase.

Personality: Rikki's shy around new people, but after getting to know her for a while, you'll find that this helpful, bubbly, sweet and emotional little angel is one of the best people you'll ever meet.

Past: Rikki is an heiress to a fabulous couture line which her mother created, so her family's mega rich. Despite this, Rikki keeps her life as a famous person secret from people, keeping her image at school as the lone wolf, and she's also on of the shyest people you'll know when you first meet her. Rikki's not at all like Heather or Lindsey. For one thing, she's not good around people she doesn't know, and is even worse with crowds. Despite these things, she's a multi-talented (and extremely beautiful) girl.

Why TDI?: Rikki's sister, Melisa, was older than her by a year, and through 2nd grade, she always wanted her sister to become more confident. After Melisa's death last Christmas when she got in this car accident, Rikki promised herself that she would change as much as she could (and wanted to), so she figured that being on national TV would not only let her show off her talents and fulfill her promise to Melisa. This is Melisa:

Talents/Skills/Hobbies: She's a singer, novelist, poet, cook, martial arts mistress, and a charming girl who knows more about fashion than both Heather and Lindsey put together!

Other: Originally, Rikki didn't want to get to know anyone. Seriously; on her first day, she said "Look, can you guys just not talk to me?" to everyone the second she walked onto the dock. However, a few nights later on the beach, she was crying since she was homesick and really missed her dead sister, Melisa; Duncan showed up, and decided to comfort her. Since then, she was alright with at least trying to get to know everyone, and also wound up falling for Duncan to a point that she began to sing one of her favorite songs, "If Cupid Had Heart" or "Heaven Sent" everytime she thought of him. The only time she would, however, is if she was alone or with Chris (she kind of sees him as a funny, crazy uncle in a way), Gwen, Bridgette or Courtney (who she instantly became great friends with).
